Rocks

About This Movie

So, 'Rocks' from 1985 is quite the oddity. It's about a rock that somehow pulls off some impressive acrobatics, which sounds absurd, yet there's something almost hypnotic about it. The pacing is slow, allowing each trick - if you can call it that - to sink in, creating this surreal atmosphere. It's a unique exploration of themes like performance and perception, especially when you consider the minimalistic approach. The practical effects are surprisingly engaging, with an almost childlike wonder that permeates the film. It’s distinctive for sure, and has that strange charm that lingers long after viewing.

Rocks is a collector's curiosity, primarily because there isn't much else like it. The film has had a limited release over the years, which adds to its rarity on physical media. Recently, there's been a little buzz among collectors for obscure films, and this one tends to pop up in discussions due to its unconventional premise. If you find it in a thrift store or a film fair, definitely consider it for your collection.
